I love it when I get emails from people who have more than one of my dogs and years later still love them!

Sue,I hope my email finds you well. I have been meaning to send you pictures of our “Twin” brothers, that we purchased from you seven years ago. They have brought so much joy into our home, and I wanted you to see them in action! Thank you again for this gift!

All the best,

MaryGrace Gudis

Greetings to you from Ozark Mo! This is Lady! She is five now and we love her so much. Just wanted you to see a pic of her and the rough life she leads🤗😉The Ondr Family

Hi Sue,It has been an interesting time since we have gotten our little friend Bernie. As you know we live in St. Augustine, unfortunately our home was inundated by the intra-coastal waterway during Hurricane Matthew. We had several inches of water in our home, and lost countless items and a good deal of our home had to be re-built. We had evacuated with Bernie a few days earlier, so we were all OK. Now it is three months later, our home is almost rebuilt, we expect to move back in within a week. Bernie has been a Godsend to us during this difficult time, as he is always happy. He ‘prances’ & hops to our delight. He is the best thing that has happened to us this year. Here is a recent photo of Bernie in motion. We had him ‘neutered’ a few weeks ago, and he is doing great. I can send you the documentation if you like.

Thank you & Happy New Year,RONALD MINTZ

Sue,We cannot express how much we love Penny since she joined our family 8 months ago! She is cuddly, playful, athletic, sweet, smart -- everywhere we go, people stop us to ask what kind of dog she is and tell us how beautiful she is. Thank you so much for this little treasure in our family! -Fiore family

From a groomer from Mass. who bought one SueI am just touching base w you to show you the best dog in the whole world..... The Original Bodie, I cannot begin to tell you how many people comment on him and his beauty. I am sure you are aware that Patricia Anderson walked into my store and flipped out over Bodie and had to have one. I groomed Coco yesterday and have to tell you she got what she wanted she is a spitting image of Bodie right down to the black around the nose. Everytime I looked at her I could not believe what I was looking at. Of course she is alittle smaller. Bodie is now 9 years old I can't believe it. I am still waiting on a tri-color boy, lol let me know when one comes available. I am on the fence now about getting another one. I also see Ollie Slifka which happens to be my cousin. They are crazy about him also. You do breed the BEST tibetans that I have come across in all the years I have been grooming dogs and I do groom a lot of Tibetans. keep breeding Jill Federman

This is her second dog from me.

The dog on the left is now 12years old

Can't remember life without Stanley. He keeps us on our toes. We are madly in love w him, we left him today for a trial by himself w Bodie of course without a crate, for 1 hour we came home toilet paper all over the house and a magazine ripped up. Not bad for a almost 7 month old boy he is a work in progress but worth every second ot it. Thanks again for breeding the best TT's Jill Federman and family

Gatsby

There is a Great Gatsby album on facebook. He is simply the most adorable creature that has ever walked, in our opinion. I'm happy to write a blurb, too. He is a complete delight and has stolen our hearts completely. What a love! He's a stinker, but a total love! I am seriously having cards for him made because we can't go in public and walk 50 feet without someone stopping to get all the information on what he is and where he's from. He's quite the popular boy.

Referral from Massachusetts

Cousins to a groomer who owns a 10 year old Tibetan From me Named BodieWe are stopped everywhere we go with Ollie and asked, "What kind of dog is that? Where did he come from?" We love him. Although the best looking dog in the world, looks are not everything. We tell everyone about the easy nature and the good behavior of our Tibetan. He also has a mind of his own which makes it even more fun. He is part of our family. Along with our 5 year old Havanese, the six of us (2 children) are a family unit. Ollie arrived with a cousin, Otis Hershelman. The Hershelman's are as thrilled with Otis as we are with Ollie. They often get to play with each other. We of course all go to Doggone It, a grooming store owned by our cousin, Jill Federman (Owner of the Original Bodie). I concur with her, you breed the best Tibetans. The Slifka Family

Fin

Sue: I've been looking at your website and reminiscing about how little Finn was whaen he came to us last October. He turned 1 on August 2 and we thought you might like to see how he's grown. People stop me on the street weekly to ask what kind of dog he is and tell me how beautiful he is. They are right! Finn is absolutely beautiful. Susan & The Sims Family Rockville Centre, NY

Another beautiful hard to come buy TRUE tri and a happy customerSusan, Attached is a current photo of Murphy who is doing just fine. He is remarkably smart and a very pleasant companion. He loves going for long walks and for drives in the car. He’s also fearless and last evening began playfully smacking a 130 lb. Newfie in the face with his snowshoe paws. I hope that your holidays were good and that some of the people I’ve referred to you have followed through. All the best for a happy and safe holiday season. John

Future show boy

Hi Susan, Just a quick note to wish you Happy Holidays and give you a small update on my Tibetan, Marty. He’s a JEWEL. You were SO right about his temperament. I’ve never owned such a wonderful dog. We spend a lot of time together. He suffers only from being the most popular dog in the “park”. He barely barks, never pouts, is very obedient, caters to our moods around here and embodies the cliché “man’s best friend”. I have a handler/trainer that shows Marty. He’s been in a number of shows and does better each show. Justin, our handler, believes the little guy is going to go quite far in the ring. His first major show (I think it’s called a “bench” show) will happen early next year in SF at the Cow Palace. Marty attends handler classes with his handler every Tuesday. His “spooked” issues are diminishing and , I believe, he’s having lots of fun “playing” in the ring. Justin feels his coat needs to grow out a bit more so that he will look even more showy. We’ve yet to see a dog like him in the shows. The handler says his confirmation is perfect. We did , initially, have some issues with him applying his “brakes” (LOL) in the ring, stopping to smell another dog’s urine in the ring, or “crouching” when spooked by odd things he had never noticed. Of course, the rolling over on his back was also a “show stopper”! We’ve always been very careful to encourage his behavior and reward him with treats and praise. He’s never been struck; on really rare occasion been hollered at (should he run into the street or something like that). What a treasure you have allowed me to own. Susan, thank you so much. He is making a difference in my life and my family’s life. All my best, howard

In his new home

3/19/13We are doing great. Only one potty accident in the house so far- amazing. We have him working on leash/harness training and he knows his name and comes a running when you call him. I have to bundle him up and sing to him to get him to sleep. Seriously. Thank you for him. Aly is doing his "official" inspection this week but he is definitely home. Can't wait to walk him on the beach soon. Xo. Meme

New Buyer of one of my beautiful tri's

Susan, Murphy is pure joy and has quite a large personality. He’s taken over the neighborhood and could probably be successful in a run for mayor this fall. Everyone that sees him comments on how handsome he is. He is quite the ham and when someone walks by without paying attention (rarely), he turns and yaps at them as if he’s insulted. He is a ham and a real comedian. I’ve attached a photo or two as promised. I’d like to thank you for allowing me to purchase him. He is a remarkable dog who I expect will bring much joy to my family and those around us. All the best, John

Meet Franklin

Hi there! Just wanted to thank you! We LOVE our Franklin! He is really a perfect fit for our family! He and Bella have really become buds! I was afraid Bella would reject him because she has her alpha tendencies... But he is a great playmate for her! In one month, he has really caught on to the whole routine. He makes us all laugh all the time! Many thanks!!! :) Tami, Jamie and Brynn Estberg

Meet Sookie

Going strong at 10

"Griffey" is 10 years old in this shot and is well loved.

This one is just too cute!!

Sue, Bella Baby found the grand-baby's pacifier. She is too funny. She is a fast learner. Started puppy school last week. We are already sitting, high fiving, laying down, rolling over, leaving treats on feet, staying. She has learned a game of picking correct hand treat is in and touching with paw for you to open. She becomes more precious everyday. Still working on potty training, but we are definately making improvements .

Another happy customer

SOPHIEHi Sue, Just wanted to send a quick note with a couple of pictures of our Sophie in her Halloween costume (a lobster!) We absolutely love her - she is the dog we always wanted. When she was about three months old, we had a trainer come to our house for a couple of months, and I think he was surprised at how smart she is and how quickly she learned everything. She attends doggy day care during the day when we are at work, and every day that I pick her up we hear how much everyone there loves her - and she loves playing with the other dogs! She is so funny, cute, and so snuggly! Every time we go out on a walk we get asked "What kind of dog is she?!" We are so happy - and I am already trying to convince my husband that we need another :) Thank you again and hope you are doing well!

LOVE AT ANY AGE

Dear Susan I'm writing to send you Boswell's photos on his 2nd birthday today! He is my loving companion, and I feel very blessed to have him. Happy Thanksgiving to you, Lynn and Boswell Lynn St. Clair

Lucy

Hi Sue, I hope this email finds you well. Lucy just turned 5 months, so I figured I would send an updated picture of the little one. We met two other dogs that came from your farm and Lucy loves playing with them. She is doing quite well and we adore her! Hope all is well. Wendy

A Very Happy California Owner

Hi Sue, One of my closest friends was once again gushing over our dog, Sadie. We got her from you Nov. 2007. My friend is looking for a dog, and we spent awhile on your site yesterday enjoying all the pictures. I wanted you to see how beautiful our Sadie turned out. She is so smart and good natured. I was surprised to discover that she can be funny. Sometimes, I think she is laughing with us as well as at us. We just adore her. I hope all is well with you and wanted to share this picture. Thank you, Kristin Birdwell

New puppy

Hi sue. I can't tell you how much we love Dexter!! He is so smart, so cute, so loving. We taught him to ring a bell to let us know he wants to go out. Now he whacks it with his paw and sure enough does his thing outside. What a great little pup. Everyone we meet wants to know what type of dog he is. Thank you! Susan

New, 2010 puppy

She now lives in VermontWell, my sweet gal, Coco, is now 6 months old. She is a CHARCTER, to say the least, friendly and smart, as you knew she would be. Thank you so much having that litle talk with her at the airport. She's great. The other puppy, now named Maki, is so funny. He's simply a happy-go-lucky guy. The two of them are the epitome of pure bliss when they get together to play, which is often. All the best to you. Patricia Anderson

This is Tashi

(AKC; Topsi Turvi Tashi). She is one of your little girls from the 4/21/10 litter. We’ve only had her since July first, but it seems like she has always been here. She has made a place for herself in our family and added so much to our lives. She has quite a sassy personality. She tells us when to go to bed, when to get up, when to play, and when to go for a walk. She looks so cute in her Halloween costume, and we love her a lot. We are so happy that we got her. Jackie Ware

Meet Lady

Just thought you might want to see our little lady. She is a baby and we love her!! She snuggles every night and sleeps with us:) She is so sweet and loves to play with other dogs! We are so glad she still has pink on her nose ... So cute. Thanks again! Daphne Ondr

Hi susan, She is outrageously lovely!!!! Thank you so much for picking us the BEST one!!!! She was calm on the flight home and she is doing so well here in our home. We love her already so much. Sending pics in my next email. Best, Stephanie Hi sue, Our puppy is doing great. She is a lovely little girl. Thanks again for all of your help and guidance Sincerely, Lawrence

Beautiful Tri Boy

Hi Susan, We’re placing our pup in his first show on May 18. It’s local. We’ll do three or four local ones to see how he likes being in the ring. Thus far, he’s doing very well. Marty has his own trainer and a handler. I’m making sure it’s fun or he won’t be in the ring. He’s such a gift!!! Gentle, frisky, obedient (most of the time!), follows me about bringing along most of his toys. Rarely barks. Always in a good mood. Truly…. my best friend. Thank you so much for allowing him to be a part of my life! best regards, howard p.d. I’ll let you know how his first time goes!!!

Freddie shopping for toys

I wanted to drop you a line to let you know how our pup is doing. We named him Freddie. We love him! He is a super great and fun puppy. He is getting his potty training down & we are taking him to puppy training to get his socialization skills underway.

Owner of two dogs, one is now 17 years old

Hi Sue, Happy New Year 2 U & your TTs! Rosy & my older boy r still doing well. The older TT is 17 & he still walks over a mile a day with Rosy & me. Tom…

New puppy owner

Susan . This dog is delightful. We named her Lacey. I thought this was a cute picture. She's been here only a few hours and has already captured the hearts of all the neighbors and our 10 year old twin grandsons. She's now sacked out under a chair because she played all afternoon with them and can't keep her eyes open. Thanks for sharing her. Jerre

Hi Sue, I just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know that our new little puppy is doing great. She is so adorable and is getting so much attention. She was (as you warned us) a little cautious at first, but has quickly warmed up. She loves our little cat Gilligan and he seems to like her too which is nice. She is growing more comfortable and confident every day. We put a towel down by her night time kennel and she decided that she needs to carry it around with her everywhere...like a baby with a blanket. It's too funny! She is doing very well on the leash. Although we have a fenced in yard, we like to take her on the extension leash just to be safe and for her to get used to being on the leash. At first she played her game of not wanting to following but I found that if I turn away and don't look at her, she then follows with no problem. Potty training is coming along. I took her out for about 20-25 minutes and she didn't do anything and then of course, when I took her inside, she promptly went on the floor:-) Oh well, the next time I took her out she did go and I praised her lavishly and she was quite happy with her success. She is eating well and seems to be adjusting to her new space and is busy exploring. Just wanted to say thanks for such a sweet puppy. She just has such a sweet personality and we couldn't be happier. I will forward some pictures over the weekend or early next week. Take care, Shawn

Dear Sue - I hope this note finds you well. I have been meaning to contact you sooner but the past month has zoomed by. Lily is adjusting well to NYC and I love her more than you can imagine!!! She is coming out of her shell and everyone just fawns over her- she is so beautiful!!!! I am guilty of buying her new toys or something every week - can't help myself! I send you a few snap shots - how's her sister doing? Best, Stacy

Hi Sue, We just heard that one of the red and white little girls went to our trainer's family. We're so delighted we could help both of you. Panda is doing great. We had our first training session last week and Amanda Hansen (trainer) is very impressive. Tomorrow she is bringing her boys (a chihuahua and a German shepherd) to help teach Panda"by example". Should be fun. Hope you are well. Fondly, Vicki and Ave

Customers two dogs

Sue Just a note to let you know Bella is doing great. She is a great traveler. She was sleeping through the night by third night. Everybody thinks she is beautiful. She likes to explore, a true puppy but such a great joy. We are still working on house training but hAve the crate down. Thanks for such a great little girl. Judy Roberts

Dear Sue: It has been eight years since we got our little boy from you( he is the hansom gold and white one on the stair case featured on your website). It has been a wonderful 8 years. We could never have imagined what a terrific addition to the family he has been. Everybody loves this dog, he really know how to turn on the charm. Thanks again for breeding such wonderful companions. Here are two pics of him with the kids. Sincerely, Sean M. Duddy

Same boy as on the leftDear Sue: It has been a couple of years since we last corresponded. Here is a photo of Benson on his 12th Birthday(November 10th 2001). He is still in excellent shape and health and nobody believes he is over 12. Weather permitting, he gets a daily 2 mile walk through a nature preserve, which we feel contributes significantly to his overall health. He sleeps more and he is not very tolerant rambunctious puppies, but we assume that is natural for dogs his age. Now that we are empty nesters(last kid left for college in September) I refer to Benny as my fuzzy kid. I hope we get many more years with him. Sincerely, Sean M. Duddy Principal

Hi Sue! Thought I'd send a cute pic of my youngest son zach with lady! She is great, don't know what happened but she (and us) have made a big turn around and she's been wonderful! We love her and she just loves being with us.... A precious part of our family. Thanks so much Daphne Ondr
